Microsoft Launcher

Microsoft Launcher (formerly known as Arrow Launcher) is an application launcher for the Android mobile platform developed by Microsoft and intended to provide a more convenient integration between Windows desktop PCs and Android smartphones.[3] Originally available as a beta in October 2015[4] and published to the Google Play Store on October 5, 2017.[5] It does not replace the stock Android operating system, but adds an additional graphical layer with a focus on Microsoft applications and services.
